"Beautiful Monster, taste and enjoy the pleasure of living in your own body and your own time." - Miccah Duckett <p/>The Blood wanted me broken.
I was sent to Thorne Academy, where no woman has ever survived before. Where monsters are forged into weapons. Where love is a flaw that gets you killed.
I was meant to crumble.
Instead, I found my other half.
Talon is The Blood's most dangerous creation. An assassin bound by blood-oaths and violence, trained to destroy without mercy. Our bond is immediate, undeniable, and irreversible.
Hugo loves him too. Not gently. Not safely. With a devotion deep enough to cut throats for him.
The Blood wanted obedience.
>And when dark obsession binds monsters together, even ancient orders learn how easily they can bleed. <p/>TRIGGERS: This book deals with dark themes including SA, unaliving, and other activities associated with secret crime syndicates and intensely dark academia.
